What it is is a publication in which Ruth Reichl among others made food writing an art, and also was able to write two sentences in a row, neither of which would contain profanities...

Quark isn’t the same thing as yogurt. Not at all. There is also fairly mild Quark to use (as something like yogurt) with Muesli and Gemuse for breakfast. If you are trying to eat Mager like yogurt it’s more like sour cream. Try learning to read German if you’re going to go to a German grocery store and then maybe you…
Yes you are right the meanness was uncalled for. I was projecting. Graduate school, and after graduate school, is so competitive now for people who want to stay in academia....I became irritated because of the implication that someone might be coasting, which as you point out isn’t implicitly stated and I can’t do…
It wasn’t a casual internet comment. The OP described themselves as lax (which the OP and I seemingly agree on the definition of; it is you who are disputing its synonyms) and asked for advice on how to marshall the time, self-discipline or whatever to complete the thesis project. She or he did then receive advice…
Yes, I guess I hadn’t considered that by “generation” the OP meant the Honeymooners generation...
Maybe give up the soul killing employment.
“...I’m from a generation that, you know, mainly laughs at Nazis. ..”

It’s always time for a Carles reference but this was a particularly good time.
I’ve thought of lots and lots of ways over the years to fund my research projects and the travel they require and so on. I have to say that offering racist, unfunny, misogynistic women comedians who no one would ever hear of if I didn’t relentlessly reference them at every turn possible, footnote placement, image…
You actually may be crazier than me, and that’s really saying something.
Wow I am always said when I’m off Gawker media for a few days because when I return I am reminded that I have been separated from all of the world’s knowledge. When you have dinner tonight at the club with Harold Bloom perhaps he can remind you of how he’s spent basically his whole career cataloguing the evidence for…
According to Jezebel’s product placement team, anything with Amy Schumer and anything by Shonda Rhimes.
Shakespeare did write a play about cannibalism, mo-mo. What do you think is the set piece of Titus Andronicus? JFC Kinja is one of the greatest fails in cultural history.
Wow, between this and the Kara Brown/Clover Hope one-two on the tall people story it’s really double down day at Jezebel, isn’t it? In a weird way I admire your intransigency and your belief in the dumbness of your readers (which is mostly warranted) in still refusing to label the posts on Schumer as sponsored…
Let’s not forget to add it to this classic.
See: C.A. Pinkham; rakes.
“There’s more women working with cars now than there’s ever been.”
“...—as someone who doesn’t really watch much TV but writes about it here...”
